I have caught the attention of the following verse of Quran: إِنَّمَا تُنذِرُ مَنِ اتَّبَعَ الذِّكْرَ وَخَشِيَ الرَّحْمَٰنَ بِالْغَيْبِ ۖ فَبَشِّرْهُ بِمَغْفِرَةٍ وَأَجْرٍ كَرِيمٍ Shakir: You can only warn him who follows the reminder and fears the Beneficent Allah in secret; so announce to him forgiveness and an honorable reward. (36:11) فَبَشِّرْهُ بِمَغْفِرَةٍ وَأَجْرٍ كَرِيمٍ If i just take the last part of this verse for discussion and analysis before we reach to get any its meaning, It defines / mentions three terms ie فَبَشِّرْهُ بِمَغْفِرَةٍ أَجْرٍ Now it we search the verse of Quran there is only one verse that in my search that defines / mentions and includes these three terms and this verse is given below: ذَٰلِكَ الَّذِي يُبَشِّرُ اللَّهُ عِبَادَهُ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ ۗ قُل لَّا أَسْأَلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ أَجْرًا إِلَّا الْمَوَدَّةَ فِي الْقُرْبَىٰ ۗ وَمَن يَقْتَرِفْ حَسَنَةً نَّزِدْ لَهُ فِيهَا حُسْنًا ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ غَفُورٌ شَكُورٌ Shakir That is of which Allah gives the good news to His servants, (to) those who believe and do good deeds. Say: I do not ask of you any reward for it but love for my near relatives; and whoever earns good, We give him more of good therein; surely Allah is Forgiving, Grateful. (42:23) This is famous verse know as verse of Muwadah for the Love of the progeny / Ahl alabayat (عليه السلام) of the prophet (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم). Thus it is sufficient to derive the complete meaning for the verse of quran first part as given below: إِنَّمَا تُنذِرُ مَنِ اتَّبَعَ الذِّكْرَ وَخَشِيَ الرَّحْمَٰنَ بِالْغَيْبِ You can only warn him who follows the reminder and fears the Beneficent Allah in secret; Thus it provides sufficient evidence to mean to love as well as follow the progeny of the prophet .(صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم). Further if we look in the verse of Sura Yaseen coming after the above verse it also mentions: إِنَّا نَحْنُ نُحْيِي الْمَوْتَىٰ وَنَكْتُبُ مَا قَدَّمُوا وَآثَارَهُمْ ۚ وَكُلَّ شَيْءٍ أَحْصَيْنَاهُ فِي إِمَامٍ مُّبِينٍ Surely We give life to the dead, and We write down what they have sent before and their footprints, and We have recorded everything in a clear Imam. (36:12) We already know from the other hadith that there are 12 Imams from the progeny of the prophet (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم), the above verse has been placed exactly at sr. no. 12. ......................(Continued)
